What is the worlds newest official language?

Dagelf Said: If you are talking about the age of the language, then the only country in the world that has an official language that is less than 130 years old is Israel. That language is Modern Hebrew, which was revived by Eliezer ben-Yehuda in the 1880's. Prior to 1880, Modern Hebrew did not exist. It's spoken by around 7 Million Israelites. Although, it's still just a revival of Hebrew. Afrikaans, on the other hand, evolved from a combination of many different languages, also during the late 19th Century - the first published works dating to the 1860's and 1870's. It was developed into a scientifically advanced, modern language in the early 20th century - the SA Government developed itself into a Nuclear Power *in Afrikaans*. It's the native language for around 6 million South Africans. NO WAY!!! Of course Indonesia!!! Indonesia don't have an official language until 1920s, where Indonesian Language is developed from Malay and Dutch!!!

What is unusual about Esperanto?

Lots of things, but the main one is that it a language that was created - a planned language. Most languages develop over hundreds of years, but Esperanto was created in the 1880's to act as a neutral "bridge" language.Esperanto has very few native speakers, compared to other languages. It is a voluntary speech community, and most Esperanto speakers opt in rather than receiving the language from their parents.It was created artificially.It has specific rules with no exceptions, making it easy to learn.Use of an opposite pre-fix greatly reduces the number of words that need to be learned.There is no required word order.It is free of any nationalistic connections.
